Sugar and Spice Crafty Challenge #6

The first challenge of June is going up a bit early. The inlinkz will open on June 4th and close on the 15th, but you will have a headstart!

As usual, the guidelines are:
1. You only need to submit a link to a photo of your completed work by the due date. I am using Inlinkz, so it will close automatically when the time is up.
2. Include a direct link to this challenge post in your description.
3. You may combine challenges. But your work must be a new creation. No backdated posts allowed.
4. You can enter up to three times (to up your chances of winning (^_~) )!
5. The winner will be a random generator (I couldn't pick anyone) and will be sent a prize as their winnings, along with bragging rights.

Inspiration pics for this challenge are:

The theme is Sweet Treats and is totally open to the crafter!!

So go to town and get your groove on, and create something sweet!

Here's some cupcake inspiration:

Winner of Challenge #5

This was a fun challenge! So happy with the entries. Everyone used mixed patterns well and I hope to continue trying it in the future.

I love the pretty colours on this card. And the use of texture was a nice touch.

This challenge was chosen by our design member, Mariko, who had the great idea to make something using mixed patterns. I think there are zillion ways to take this challenge, so I really looking forward to seeing what everyone comes up with (including the other design members).

And here are the projects from our members. Be sure to click on their blogs for more info and details. And comments are always welcome! :)

Leah made cool edges on her card with scraps.
